Bruno Schulz podczas sowieckiej okupacji Drohobycza

The author discusses hardly known drawings by Bruno Schulz, published in 1941 in the local Drogobych paper Bolshevytska Pravda and provides some new information about his life under the first Soviet occupation. Focusing on a specific socialist-realist episode in Schulz’s artistic career, on the one hand Khomych writes about his survival techniques under the circumstances, while on the other she tries to find in the commissioned illustrations, mostly explicitly propagandist, some features of his style characteristic also of his earlier works.
